Provided is a technique for preventing a loss by storing a universal plug and play (UPnP) control request and delaying handling of the UPnP control request. A method of handling a UPnP control request in a UPnP control point includes storing a UPnP control request that is not handled in the UPnP control point, receiving a message informing that a UPnP control device has participated in a network from the UPnP control device, receiving information about capability of the UPnP control device from the UPnP control device, determining whether the UPnP control device can perform the UPnP control request that is not handled based on the information about capability of the UPnP control device, and transmitting the UPnP control request to the UPnP control device that is determined to be able to perform the UPnP control request.

An event message transmitting method performed in a controlled device (CD) which is controlled by a control point (CP) is provided, in which an application is received from the CP via a network according to a network protocol, the received application is installed according to a framework of an execution environment of the CD, a first event message that represents a state change of the application is generated according to the framework, and the first event message is converted into a second event message that conforms to the predetermined network protocol. Accordingly, information about a state change of a CD which operates in an execution environment can be adaptively transmitted according to a network protocol.

Provided are a method and apparatus for discovering a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) device by using resource information. The method includes: multicasting a search message including resource request information, which requests a resource to the device, to a network complying with the predetermined standard; receiving at least one response message regarding the search message; and discovering a device corresponding with the resource request information based on the received response message. Accordingly, available information of the resource can be obtained in a discovery process, and as a result, a trial and error during the search and control can be avoided. Also, unnecessary waste of resources, such as network traffic, can be prevented, and thus efficiency of a communication protocol is improved.

Provided is are method of relaying communication between a remote user interface (RUI) client and a universal plug and play (UPnP) device in a home network. The method includes: searching for a UPnP action mapped to an RUI element corresponding to an RUI control message received from an RUI client,; generating a simple object access protocol (SOAP) message for calling a found UPnP action; and transmitting the SOAP message to the UPnP device.

Provided is a method, medium and apparatus for providing a dynamically changed universal plug and play (UPnP) description. The method includes sensing a change of a service configuration of a device complying with a predetermined standard, updating a description including information about a service based on the change of the service configuration, and advertising that the description is updated. Thus, the service configuration is matched with the description and a control point can correctly control the device whose service configuration is changed.
